Memory Lyrics - The Tossers

Well oh remember that day, average and gray, you came to me and then 

I heard a kindness like a memory I once felt on a passing wind 

Oh but the kindness I've known 

From street and stone they still resound your presence and animation 

No not negation or affirmation, but positivity and creation 

Oh but the kindness I've known 

Not destruction but creation in the waning hearts you mended 

But the spark of connection that fills the soul when simply you're befriended 

Oh but the kindness I've known 

As well I knew in such freedom grew also isolation 

Of the pain of knowing so very few who'ld not desire your captivation 

Oh but the kindness I've known 

Your love and true and pure desire tireless, endless and sad 

I wonder now would I be the same if I'd left what if I had 

Oh but the kindness I've known 

To discover to the world what I know of you and not unattainable song 

That would glorify your attributes like we've done all along 

There's a lot more to you than song 

and pedistals they cannot describe the torment you've been through 

And banishment cannot consummate the frustration and monotony we knew 

And song will never ever portray the wonder that you've known 

But lyric sticks here like a timeline and it's a mark to show we've gone 

Oh but the kindness I've known 

So I'll represent this kindness since all else is extoled and present how it does thrive 

Like the care and nourishment long forgot in infancy that kept us alive 

Lethal environment does not always justify reactionary violent behavior 

For striking down malevolence takes it's place and our timeline read the same here 

Oh but the kindness I've known 

Oh this kindness is what the great search is for not wisdom or divining 

Our subconsionce recognizes it's safe guard form birth 

To keep our self absorbed frustrated minds from grinding 

Oh but the kindness I've known
